Knitting down the stash

Happy Easter! I hope this post finds you health and happy. I have been enjoying seeing all the creative baking being shown on Instagram at the moment. Social media at its best - inspiring and encouraging others. One of the great joys of being at home for those of us who like to cook or...

2020

Hello! It has been a while. I hope this post finds you all healthy, and coping with all the life dramas being thrown at us at the moment. We certainly live in 'interesting' times!

Another chapter begins

Hello my wonderful knitting friends. The last time you saw a post from me it appeared that I was riding off into the sunset with the man whom I had chosen to share my life with. Well, life as we know has good bits and bad bits, and it turned out that 2018 ended on...
